Differentia Consulting and digital transformation platform provider Cyferd are delighted to announce the signing of their forthcoming go-to-market partnership agreement, which was made official today.
Differentia Consulting, the technology-focused BI and ERP consultancy that has specialised in solutions, support, and training in several different fields since 2002, is excited to be moving forward on a new business venture. They aim to help businesses achieve operational excellence, adopt hyper automation strategies, and become more agile.
Cyferd is an agile digital transformation platform that takes a new and unique approach to data-driven digital transformation by tackling the problem of data fragmentation and data silos at the source. The platform enables users to create scalable, secure business applications in the cloud without the requirement for coding, on a unified data layer, accelerating digital business transformation.
The partnership, which aims to make significant gains in solving strategic business issues, such as compliance, will focus on creating a shared solution for streamlined organisational processes. Planned projects include improvements on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) topics, such as net-zero carbon emission targets, as well as Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC), including supply chain cyber compliance.
Adrian Parker, Senior VP of Strategy and Marketing at Differentia Consulting, is excited to be working in the agile transformation platform space – where he has extensive previous experience.
“We’re moving forward with Cyferd on facilitating graph-powered digital transformation journeys using digital twins,” Parker notes. “We’re making digital transformation more agile by re-engineering digital processes.”
The partnership is particularly significant due to a shared ethos between the two companies. With the Cyferd platform, users can reap the benefits of cloud minus the complexity by using one unified data model and reduce the barriers to business innovation. This model upends existing methods of digital transformation and positions Cyferd as a disruptor to watch in the tech sphere. Meanwhile, Differentia Consulting has an excellent reputation for enabling organisations to make their operational processes smarter through use of data.
Greg Merten, Senior VP of Alliances and Partners at Cyferd, suggests that Cyferd’s low-work promise aligns with Differentia Consulting’s vision for Lean IT.
“Ultimately, the partnership is hoped to achieve long-term successes for organisations to achieve accelerated agile digital transformation,” Merten says. “We’re excited to be working with a solution partner like Differentia Consulting that matches our appetite for growth.”
What’s next for 2022? Go-to-market activities are set to commence shortly in the new year, with updates from both companies’ social media accounts arriving soon.

Technology pioneer Hanzo, a provider of enterprise solutions for legal, governance, and compliance teams is proud to introduce Hanzo Command Center. Designed to work seamlessly with Hanzo Illuminate, Hanzo Command Center is a Slack ediscovery application that allows users to create matters securely, initiate legal holds, add custodians, and trigger collections in either Slack or Google Workspace directly from within Slack.
Today, users perform many daily tasks within collaboration platforms such as Slack. Research has also shown that “context switching” between platforms and applications takes a toll on productivity and stress levels. Slack, in conjunction with GlobalWebIndex, “reported in their 2019 Slack State of Work” report that 64% of aligned workers report spending 30+ minutes daily switching apps resulting in 130+ lost hours a year just switching between applications.
“Understanding Slack’s Digital HQ philosophy that encourages more work to be contained and performed within Slack to facilitate greater productivity was at the forefront of our thinking when designing Command Center,” said Dave Ruel, Head of Product, Hanzo. “It was important for us to empower enterprise legal teams to improve their workflows by enabling them to manage ediscovery processes in Slack where they were already working.”
Hanzo’s Command Center eliminates productivity-killing context-switching and enables enterprise legal teams to perform eDiscovery duties up to 50% faster* than using Hanzo Illuminate alone. The Slack-based application also provides a guided workflow from matter creation to collection, making the entire process easier to navigate and perform. (Watch the video)
*Hanzo internal benchmark tests have shown that matter creation and custodian assignments are up to 50% faster using Command Center than Illuminate alone.
Command Center comes as a feature application for Hanzo Illuminate customers who also have a Slack enterprise grid license and/or Google Business Plus or Enterprise license. Existing Hanzo Illuminate customers will gain access to this application at no additional cost. Following is a list of functions included in the Hanzo Command Center application.
- Matter Creation – Create a matter within Hanzo Illuminate with a name, description, data sources, and optional start/end dates
- Add Custodian – Add custodian(s) to existing Hanzo Illuminate matters at any point in the ediscovery process.
- Collect Matter – Trigger a matter collection with optional start/end dates for Slack/Gmail/GDrive data sources.
- Matter List – Generate a Matter List in Command Center’s “Messages” area.
- Custodian List – Generate a list of custodians for a selected matter within the Command Center’s “Messages” area.
- Channel List – Generate a list of channels for a selected matter within the Command Center’s “Messages” area.
- Close Matter – Close a matter in Hanzo Illuminate. This terminates matter syncing into Slack and releases custodians from hold in Slack and/or Google Vault.
- Shortcut Actions – All features above are available via shortcuts in the Command Center Messages area.
- Messages Area – Actions performed in Command Center are logged in the Messages area. Users can search the message area for custodians, actions, matter names, etc.
